even for frapsing double ssd is overkill (just a WD black drive should do the trick), also raptor drive for storage you can save allot there. (unless you really need that 160mb/s average compared to +- 140 of a wd black drive)
As for frapsing what CPU do you want to match with that board?
What parts can you reuse , we need more info on what you want to do with the rig if you want solid advice. (fraps what? minecraft )

basicly specifics the more the better.

I'm a newbie in this computer stuff, a friend of mine always told me what to buy to get what I wanted, but now he is gone .

About fraps I'm a little bit clueless. I just read that I need it 1 hard drive to run the game and another for fraps, that's why I thought I'll need a 3rd one for storage.

np lets see what we can make of it.
any chance you know the exact type of cpu? (i5 k can be many things, guessing i5-2500k but not sure)
also can you check the power supply for how many "W" and what brand ?

The biggest waste of money is to buy a solid state to record fraps footage on. All you need is a 5400RPM internal drive for the most part. Get one SSD for boot/programs, 1 mechanical for fraps, 1 mechanical for storage

You do not Fraps on a 5400 RPM drive...the data loss will be horrific. Consequently buying an SSD to Fraps does not say to be recorded on, thus making your assumption all be it usually accurate still incorrect. If say you had a 1tb 7200 RPM drive and wanted to record better buying an SSD for your O.S would still be equivalent to buying an SSD to Fraps. Further more if you have the money writing to an SSD will definitely give better transfer but kill the SSD much faster for now.

@op for intel cpu's anything above 1333Mhz is not worth the extra dollars.

Yes is the i5-2500k, my power supply is a Corsair 950W Enthusiast Series

Can I ask u guys also something, are 8GB ram, enough to play games like WOW, GW2 and mmo's in general, 'cause thats almost all I play.

For $1100, i'd expect a CPU too (you have one already). For the price you're paying, a GTX680 and 16GB of RAM would be expected. 8GB of RAM costs around $40 no sweat. A 670 would set you back somewhere in the region of $350-400 i'd assume. 2x 128GB SSD's would cost $170-200, and the motherboard, well it's not gonna cost $420.

Also, contrary to popular belief, having a RoG board doesn't make it perform any better. It might overclock better, but you're playing poker then as you still need a CPU and RAM capable of handling it. If you've got a pair of aces (Awesome CPU + RAM), the best hand you'll get is 3 of a kind on Aces (assuming your board is capable of maxing out), maybe 4 of a kind if you get one of those legendary 670's that can handle a +175Mhz core boost overclock, but in reality, you'll probably end up rolling a 10 with the board and an 8 on the GPU leaving you with a measly old pair (a great pair but still, just a pair).

I had a RoG board once. Truly no real benefit other than looks (and honestly, even with a window, subtle lighting and a fondness of a good looking rig, i don't spend much if any time admiring the inside).

As long as you're not actively reading from the drive while recording, the throughput of a 5400RPM drive is more than sufficient. If you're reading from a mechanical drive while trying to write to it, then there's issues, but having a drive dedicated to FRAPS is entirely feasible using 5400RPM. It's what many people, including myself, do (or in my case, did in the past).

If anything, i'd avoid using an SSD for FRAPS for the simple basis of it's write cycle limit (and the cost per GB still being extravagant compared to mechanical drives).

first sentence true but we don't have to question that tbh.
maybe his mobo is a limiting factor in getting the extra drives or supporting of certain fuctions like oc'ing (we don't know but im guessing there is a reason for it)
second one is a bad idea because the gain will be very little.
